Saturday was another jam-packed “Short Course Blitz” for me as I try and waste no time in checking all of them off my list in Southern California. This time I headed to the heart of San Diego and a little bit southward to visit five different courses. I was at it dark and early… Tecolote... Continue Reading →
Finishing Strong in San Diego County
My quest to play all the public, regulation 18-hole courses in Southern California continues with a goal of completing the primary list in February. Saturday found me finishing things up down in beautiful San Diego County. There are still many private clubs and plenty of short courses I may play someday, but from what I... Continue Reading →
